Default Mailmerge using Excel with photos

I am trying to setup a badge mailmerge document in Word 2007 that uses an
Excel 2007 document as the source. Column A references a picture file.

I tried referencing the picture file in the Excel doc as a column with the
file location, but that didn't transfer over to Word (was listed as an
absolute reference - C:\Documents & Settings...).

I found in Word how to include a picture, but it only included the picture
file I referenced, not the Next_Record picture.

Is there an easy way for me to accomplish this mail merge, or am I on my own
with this one?

Thanks for any help.
